What Causes Fever,flu Like Symptoms And Back Ache?

Good Day! I am not feeling well since yesterday morning after having watery bowel at about 2am and 5am. First i felt uncomfortable with my throat, i usually feel this when flu attacks me. However, last night, at around 2am, I had chills and fever of 38.5 degrees (101.3 F)and stopped when I took Analgesic. I feel okay after minutes of taking (i take this every 6hrs). As of now, I have very cold hands, lower back pain both sides, flu and fever. What do you think of my condition? Am I experiencing what? Thank You
